OMGServ 2FA: How to Set Up an Authenticator App

omgserv.com Supported

Enable two-factor authentication on OMGServ to stop unauthorized logins. After setup, OMGServ asks for a rotating code from Authenticator App - Novaz in addition to your password.

Losing a OMGServ account can take your sites or servers offline, so lock it down with 2FA. OMGServ secures sign-ins with an authenticator app — set it up once and you're protected on every login.

2FA methods OMGServ supports

  • Authenticator app (TOTP)
  1. 1

    Download Authenticator App - Novaz

    Install Authenticator App - Novaz from the App Store on your iPhone or iPad and open it — you'll use it to scan OMGServ's QR code and generate your 6-digit sign-in codes.

    Download on the App Store
  2. 2

    Sign in to OMGServ and open your OMGServ account security settings.

  3. 3

    Turn on two-factor authentication and choose the authenticator-app option.

    Look for "Authenticator app", "Authentication app", or "TOTP" rather than SMS.

  4. 4

    Scan the QR code with Authenticator App - Novaz.

    Open Authenticator App - Novaz, tap add, and point your camera at the QR code OMGServ displays. Can't scan? Enter the setup key manually instead.

  5. 5

    Enter the 6-digit code to confirm.

    Type the code Authenticator App - Novaz generates to verify and link your OMGServ account.

  6. 6

    Save a way to recover your account.

    If OMGServ shows backup or recovery codes, store them somewhere safe, away from your phone. If it doesn't, check how OMGServ recovers accounts (support, an admin, or another sign-in method) before you need it.

Menu names on OMGServ can change — the official OMGServ 2FA documentation ↗ always has the exact, current path.

How to recover your OMGServ account

If you lose access to your authenticator and OMGServ gave you backup or recovery codes when you turned on 2FA, sign in with one of them; keep them somewhere safe, away from your phone. Not every service issues codes. If OMGServ doesn't, or you didn't save them, use OMGServ's account-recovery or support process (or ask your admin, for a work account) to get back in.
